Avi uses 11 toothpicks to form a row of 5 attached triangles, as shown. Suppose he continues this pattern, using 89 toothpicks in all. What is the total number of triangles formed? (sorry the picture wasn't uplodaing)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

44

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Avi used 11 toothpicks to form a row of 5 attached triangles.

Total number of toothpicks used = 89

Let the total number of triangles formed be represented by x, so that:

11 toothpicks = 5 triangles

It would be observed that only the first triangle starting the pattern has 3 toothpicks. So that;

the average number of toothpicks for 1 triangle = [tex]\frac{11}{5}[/tex]

                                  = 2.2

The number of toothpicks per triangle = 2.0

Thus,

x = [tex]\frac{89}{2.0}[/tex]

  = 44.5

x = 44

The total number of triangles formed is 44.

In a certain country people own a total of about 352 million fish, cats, and dogs as pets. The number of fish owned is 14 million more than the total number of cats
and dogs owned, and 11 million more cats are owned than dogs. How many of each type of pet do people in this country own?

Answers

Answer:

dogs = 79

dats = 90

fish = 183

Step-by-step explanation:

let the total number of dogs owned be x

no. of cats owned = x+11

no. of fish owned = x+11+x+14= 2x+25

hence,

2x+25+x+11+x=352

4x=316

x=316/4= 79mil

no. of cats owned = 79 + 11 = 90

no. of fish owned = 2(79)+25=183

Solve for the value of x

The polynomial p(x) = x3 – 7x - 6 has a known factor of (x + 1).
Rewrite p(x) as a product of linear factors.
p(x)

Answers

Hi there!

[tex]\large\boxed{(x -3)(x + 2)(x + 1)}[/tex]

We can use long division to find the other roots of p(x).

We know that x + 1 is a factor, so:

Set up:

Find how many times that the first term in the divisor goes into the first of the dividend. Subtract from like terms.

         x² - x - 6

x + 1 | x³ + 0x² - 7x - 6

         x³ + x²

         0 - x²     - 7x

            - x²      - x

             0        - 6x - 6

                        -6x - 6

                          0     0

Therefore, x² - x - 6 is another factor. We can factor this further:

Find two numbers that add up to -1 and multiply into -6. We get:

-3, 2

(x - 3)(x + 2)

The entire polynomial factored is:

(x -3)(x + 2)(x + 1)

Part B: Determine the x-intercepts. What do these values mean in the context of the problem? (5 points)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The way to do this so as to streamline both the vertex and finding the zeros is to complete the square. That method will provide us with the vertex, and then we can continue on to factor from that form to find the zeros. Completing the square requires us to set the quadratic equal to 0 then move over the constant, giving us

[tex]-x^2+18x=72[/tex] The leading coefficient HAS to be a positive 1; ours is negative 1 so we factor out the negative to get:

[tex]-(x^2-18x)=72[/tex] Now we're ready to complete the square.

Take half the linear term, square it, and add it to both sides. Our linear term is 18 (from -18x; don't worry about the negative because squaring it makes it positive anyway). Half of 18 is 9, and 9 squared is 81.

BUT on the left we have that -1 sitting out front that refuses to be ignored. What we actually added on to the left side, inside the parenthesis, is -1(81) which is -81.   -81 is what we add to the right since that turns out to be what we added to the left:

[tex]-(x^2-18x+81)=72-81[/tex] and we clean that up.

The reason we complete the square is because when we simplify the left side, we end up with a perfect square binomial found from taking the square root of x-squared, the first sign we come to, then the square root of 81:

[tex]-(x-9)^2=-9[/tex].  Move the constant back over to get

[tex]-(x-9)^2+9=y[/tex] telling us that the vertex is (9, 9). In the context of the problem that means that the gym sells on average 9 memberships a day and the profit it makes on average per day is $9.

To factor, we will go back one step to

[tex]-(x-9)^2=-9[/tex] and begin by dividing both sides by -1 to get

[tex](x-9)^2=9[/tex] and undo the squaring by taking the square root of both sides to get

x - 9 = ±3 so

x = 9 + 3 and

x = 9 - 3 so

x = 6 and 12

Those are the zeros. This means that if they sell either 6 or 12 memberships they have a 0 profit. That may sound strange, but in business it does often work like that...selling too many of something makes your company lose money (this is often due to the cost required by you to produce or manufacture the product).

Canada has a population of 33 million while Russia has 144 million inhabitants. Indonesia population is 50% greater then that of Russia while it is only 72% of the population of the United States. How many million people must be added to the United States so that the population of that country becomes 10 times of Canada?

Answers

Answer: 30 million people must be added.

Step-by-step explanation: 50% of 144 million is 72 million. You add these to find Indonesia’s population. 144 million + 72 million= 216 million. If 216 million is only 72% of the US population, then divide 216 million by 72 to find 1%. 216 million/72=3 million. Multiply this by 100 to find the US population. 3 million times 100= 300 million. Now, multiply Canada’s population by 10. 33 million times 10= 330 million. Finally, subtract 300 million from 330 million to find the amount needed to make the US population 10 times that of Canada’s. 330 million-300 million=30 million. So , you need 30 million people in order to make the US population 10 times that of Canada’s.

As part of a class project, a university student surveyed the students in the cafeteria lunch line to look for a relationship between eye color and hair color among students. The table below contains the results of the survey.

Answers

Answer: Choice B)  0.27

=========================================================

Explanation:

There are a lot of data values here, and it's possible to easily get lost in them. However, we're asked only about students with blond hair. So we only focus on the first row. Ignore everything else.

We see that there are 78 of these students total. Of this total, 21 have green eyes.

Therefore, the relative frequency of blonds with green eyes is 21/78 = 0.2692 which rounds to 0.27; so that's why the answer is choice B.
